Details: This recall involves DiveAlert and DiveAlert PLUS scuba dive signaling
devices with model numbers DA2, DP2 or DV2. The signaling device is attached to the diver’s
buoyancy compensator device (BCD) power inflator/alternate regulator system by a chrome-plated
brass coupling and is used to activate a loud surface horn or an underwater percussion noise to
alert others in the event of a diver’s emergency. The devices are also used in non-emergencies to
get the attention of the pickup boat or other divers. The DA2 is black with an orange button, the
DP2 is black with a gray knob and red button and has DiveAlert PLUS printed on it, and the DV2 is
black and red. They can be used with Aqualung AirSource, Oceanic Air XS, Aeris Air Link and Mares
Air Control regulator/inflators. Only these signaling devices without any stamped writing on the
coupling’s collar are included in this recall. Sold at dive equipment stores nationwide from July
2009 through May 2013 for between $70 and $90. Manufactured by Ideations DiveAlert, of Seattle,
Wash. Manufactured in United States.

Why: The signaling device can malfunction when used and restrict the diver’s air
flow, posing a drowning hazard.

How many: About 2,500

Incidents: None reported. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled
DiveAlert signaling devices and return them to an authorized DiveAlert dealer or to DiveAlert for a
free repair. The repair consists of replacing the defective female coupling.
